Grandma's Biscuits
These biscuits have been in my life since I was a child. My mother got it from my father's mother. These were much easier than the rolled biscuits that my mother's mother made. Indeed, I can throw a batch of these together while I'm waiting for the oven to preheat. It seems that canned biscuits are silly, as well as not tasting nearly as good.
